Cusco, Peru

We took the Palomino bus from Abancay to Cusco (5 hours, 15PEN/CAD$5).  There happened to be a Palomino bus station directly opposite our hostel, so at 5:30 in the morning we decided to catch our 6:00am bus there (thinking it must go to the main terminal).  The bus didn’t do that.  We weren’t idiots.  We had asked the driver, he checked our tickets (twice) and confirmed that we were on the right bus heading to Cusco.  The bus didn’t stop at the main bus terminal (where we were supposed to get on).  So we sat on the bus for 5 hours hoping that there would be enough seats for everyone.  There was and we made it to Cusco.
